"OS X is a solid operating system for those who enjoy Apple's vision of the ideal desktop. It offers access to pro-level applications that many industries rely on. Yet it isn't always the most practical operating system for the casual end user. In fact, in some cases, it's completely overkill."

"They say life imitates art. But, I believe life imitates technology. Look at distributed systems, decentralized computing, open source, and lean principles. With these and other technical initiatives, we've pushed boundaries and improved our applications, our networks, our companies, and our lives."

[This is as much a book about regrettable race relations as it is the most revered band in history. In the end, author Edgar O. Cruz defines the Beatles more as fantastic and brilliant plagiarists of mostly African-American music, not the greatest composers since Beethoven. ...]

"In December 2011 countries agreed in Durban, South Africa to secure a new international legal agreement by 2015. This is not the first time that countries agreed to finalize such an agreement. Cynics point out that countries continually agree to formulate something new"

"Sometimes looking for information on a Unix system is like looking for needles in haystacks. Even important messages can be difficult to notice when they're buried in huge piles of text. And so many of us are dealing with "big data" these days -- log files that are multiple gigabytes in size and huge record collections in any form that might be mined for business intelligence."

Interview with Gina Likins and Donna Benjamin At OSCON in Portland this year, Donna Benjamin and Gina Likins are combining forces to talk about a topic that is sometimes easily dismissed: conflict resolution. Given the growing need to address conflict in technology, and that even popular projects like the Linux Kernel adopting codes of conduct, it's no surprise that conferences feature talks on human interaction."

""Nuestra misión en un principio fue investigar cómo podíamos rescatar la humedad del aire para transformarla en agua y mira lo que hemos creado". Enrique Veiga es el inventor de este proyecto, un generador de agua potable que puede abastecer a pequeñas aldeas en medio de climas tan extremos como el desértico. ¿Invento del siglo? "

"It is difficult to associate open source programmers and companies with what some writers have called "hacker culture" or "the hacker ethic." Instead, open source values, and projects such as Linux, can be traced to academia."

"The history of open source is long and storied, and fascinating enough to be a book. Which is what The VAR Guy contributing editor Christopher Tozzi is doing. And while he's been plugging away at his trusty Smith-Corona (not really-he's definitely an open source stalwart), The VAR Guy has been lucky enough to be the recipient of the byproducts of his research. And so, without further ado, here's a collection of the Open Source History lessons we've learned thus far."
